Unpacking and Placement

Unpack your Audio Video Preamplifier and remove all accessories from the carton.

Keep all packing materials for future transport of your Audio Video Preamplifier. Shipping your new component in anything other than its purpose-designed packing material may result in damage that is not covered by the warranty.

Your AVP2 includes a small remote control that covers the basics of turning the unit on and off, selecting something to listen to or to watch, and adjusting vol- ume. It is designed to make day-to-day operation of the system as simple as possible.

Alternatively, you may decide that you would prefer to have a more powerful or versatile remote control. Your dealer can assist you in selecting a learning remote control that is appropriate to your needs, and can then teach the new remote control all the necessary AVP2 commands from the AVP2 itself. The AVP2 can transmit as well as receive IR commands, and its menu system contains an exten- sive list of available commands for learning remote controls (going far beyond what is normally available in such products).

Place the Audio Video Preamplifier near the digital sources, thus keeping inter- connecting cables reasonably short. It may be placed on a shelf or in a cabinet where it’s convenient to operate.

Note that adequate clearance for the AC cord and connecting cables must be left behind the Audio Video Preamplifier. We suggest leaving at least three inches of free space behind the Audio Video Preamplifier to allow all cables sufficient room to bend without crimping or undue strain.

It is normal and perfectly safe for your Audio Video Preamplifier to run warm. Be sure to allow 2 to 3 inches of clearance above it to allow heat dissipation through air circulation. The vents on both the bottom and the top of the Audio Video Preamplifier must be kept free from any obstruction which would reduce the flow of air through the unit. Avoid placement on soft surfaces that would restrict airflow (such as carpeting).
